Re: The Story Of A Cummins Suburban (Lots Of Pics)

We got up in the morning packed up our hoopties and rolled back up to the main site to do a little more aimless wandering. Off in the distance there were a couple cool old Suburbans (one is probably low on gas):



This is the pipeline road heading out of Swansea. Lots and lots of uphill and downhill: (That first little "dip" in the road is actually hiding a Suburban)



If you wheel an old full-size truck, this is a sight that becomes very familiar very quickly: Hood and sky--lots of both, but no trail in sight.



This is just another pic showing how everything is a different color from everything else: (The white things are the supports for the cable spans on the pipeline bridge)



Cool looking rock:



Here is an underside shot of the pipeline bridge. Pretty massive structure out in the middle of nowhere:



This is an engine-in-a-shack that I was checking out near the bridge. It is an Arrow engine which are designed for 100% duty cycle, 24/7/365. It looks very similar to an old hit and miss agricultural engine:



Rolling hills, all different colors: grey, red, tan.



After we left the anti-scenic Alamo Lake, we rolled through a cool patch of Joshua Tree:
